by Elaine Ash (Author)
What one thing holds back most unpublished manuscripts? According to book doctor and fiction editor Elaine Ash, it's not a lack of sparkling characters or lustrous prose-it's structure
After working for decades to learn how bestselling scribes like J.K. Rowling, Gillian Flynn and Stephen King structure prize-winning novels, Elaine developed a groundbreaking system to teach it. Structure is what many aspiring authors need to know the most.
You'll learn how great novels are structured through characters: The Hunger Games, The Big Sleep, The Lincoln Lawyer, and many more. New concepts such as character counting and character categorization are introduced, followed by structural elements that underlie virtually all popular entertainment.
You'll learn the importance of mindset for fresh, inspired writing and techniques for seeing your work with new eyes.
Test work sheets help evaluate any novel, including unpublished manuscripts needing just a little more polish to get picked up by an agent or publisher. Get started today.
"It's 'Moneyball' for novelists." -Dan Kelly, editing client & 18-yr Warner Bros. veteran
"This is one of the most enlightening books on writing I've read, and I've read a lot of them." -Rochelle Staab, President, Sisters in Crime Los Angeles; Murder in Mind mysteries
"Bestseller Metrics codifies insights that I have been groping toward in the dark for years." -Albert Tucher, Principal Librarian, Newark Public Library
Entire industries have been revolutionized recently by the use of objective, quantitative analytics. What Bestseller Metrics shows, and what Elaine Ash is helping to pioneer, is a quantitative lens that can be applied to the structure of a novel. -Dan Schultz, Business Development Consultant at Inkubate; Forensic Linguistics
I've read a lot of how-to books for writing and haven't found many that were particularly helpful. Bestseller Metrics is, hands-down, the most valuable reference about the craft of writing I've ever used. Packed full of worksheets and practical information backed up by real data, this book is a must-have for any novelist-it doesn't matter if you're a beginner or already a bestselling author who wants to stay on top of their game. -M.L. Spencer, author of the Rhenwars series, and perpetual top-selling fantasy author.

Author Biography
Elaine Ash edits fiction writers-from established authors to emerging talent. As the former editor-at-large for Beat to a Pulp e-zine, Elaine worked directly with writers of all genres to develop short stories for publication.
Some of those writers went on to fame and fortune such as recent Edgar nominee Patti Abbott (Polis), Jay Stringer (Thomas and Mercer), Chris F. Holm (Mulholland), S.W Lauden (Rare Bird), Kerian Shea (Titan), Hilary Davidson (Macmillan) Sophie Littlefield (Minotaur, Delacorte) and many more.
Among the titles Elaine has edited and produced, Walking the Dunes with Tennessee Williams is especially notable. A first-person memoir by the late Mia Elkovsky Phoebus, it fills in a small piece of history from 1940, when Mia shared a ramshackle house with America's great playwright, Tennessee Williams (The Glass Menagerie, A Streetcar Named Desire). Distribution is through Walmart, Barnes and Noble, Amazon and many other outlets.
Under the pen name "Anonymous-9," Elaine's crime fiction is included by numerous "Best of" lists every year. Her work has been praised by T. Jefferson Parker, Ray Garton, Johnny Shaw, Douglas Lindsay, Josh Stallings, Robert Randisi and many others.
Organizations book her for speaking and teaching engagements, such as the Greater Los Angeles Writers Society, Sisters in Crime, the Mystery Writers of America, the Coffee House Writers' Group, and many more.
Bestseller Metrics is more than a book, it is also a patent pending system currently in software development for the publishing industry.
